  • Hi Tiu 

     

    From what I can see, based on the normal superannuation calculations, no superannuation should have been calculated for that employee.

     

    ATO: Work out if you have to pay super

    Generally, if you pay an employee $450 or more (before tax) in salary or wages in a calendar month, you must also pay super guarantee for them.

    As the employee has not reached that threshold for the calendar month no superannuation should be calculated.
